My entire career, up to this point, has been dedicated to serving and developing my passion for arts education. As early as High School, I was drawn to both leadership and the arts. Young as I was at the time, I knew that I wanted to share the magic and the power of theater with as many people as possible – and I watched it change the lives of the inner city kids whom I have directed in some of my first theater productions. I went on to try my hand at writing for film and theater, producing talent, teaching theater at conservatories across the country, and offering my services as a judge and a motivational speaker at various international arts events, while leading the education department of Tony Randall's National Actors Theater for over twenty classical productions over eight years. All with the purpose of sharing my passion for theater and for the arts.

  • Pair of $1.2M Juveniles Headline Ft Gulfstream
    THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 2018 PAIR OF $1.2M JUVENILES MAN O= WAR PROJECT HELPING THE SOLDIERS OF WAR HEAL by Dan Ross HEADLINE FT GULFSTREAM How long have humans been aware of the cruel psychological toll of war? For a clue, just turn to the Ancient Greeks, and the play Ajax, about a decorated general whose hellish recollections of battle drive him into deep depression and eventually to suicide. For millennia then, we have recognized many of the conditions that now fall under the umbrella of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). And yet, beyond a handful of common treatments for PTSD with only so-so success rates, the medical establishment has largely ignored so called "alternative" treatments for which there's overwhelming anecdotal evidence as to their benefits.

  • The View from the Stadium: the University of Kansas’ Memorial Stadium and the College Stadium Movement by © 2019 Howard Graham
    The View from the Stadium: The University of Kansas’ Memorial Stadium and the College Stadium Movement By © 2019 Howard Graham M.A., University of Kansas, 2008 B.A., Colgate University, 1999 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: John Rury Suzanne Rice Ebenezer Obadare David Roediger Date Defended: 16 May 2019 ii The dissertation committee for Howard Graham certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The View from the Stadium: The University of Kansas’ Memorial Stadium Chair: John Rury Date Approved: 26 July 2019 iii Abstract The View from the Stadium: The University of Kansas’ Memorial Stadium, is a meditation over the college football stadium movement of the post-World War I era. The study incorporates higher education history, intellectual and social history of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, African and African American history, Indigenous Nations history, whiteness studies, geography, sports history, and political philosophy. This dissertation seeks to establish the social and political backgrounds that inform the stadium movement of the 1920s. The aim is to understand the factors that influenced how KU’s Memorial Stadium (1921) was conceptualized, completed and subsequently. It is a conceptual intervention focused on stadium space and use, and contributes to the scholarship of higher education and sport. iv Acknowledgements I wish to thank my wife, Amanda, and our children, Russell and Ruby, for their support that made this dissertation possible. If there were a dedication, it would be for Amanda who sacrifices every day for our family and me.
